This established Sylvan Learning Center provides a unique opportunity to acquire a recognized education business in a strong suburban Chicago market. Approximately 70–80% of families participate through recurring monthly payment plans, providing a stable revenue base. The center is supported by an experienced instructional team, with several teachers having served local families for more than 15 years. The current owner has stepped into the owner/operator role following the departure of a long-time Center Director, creating an opportunity for a new owner to build the leadership structure that best fits their operating style. The seller is an experienced multi-center Sylvan franchisee who intends to remain with the brand and is willing to provide transition assistance to help ensure continued success.
